Popis: This paper developed a guided drone or quadcopter or quadrotors energized by Radio Frequency Energy Harvesting, one type of energy scavenging that notwithstanding its least yield power among any other energy scavenging types, its all the time accessibility, batteryless and availability wherever make its own points of interest no other sort of energy scavenging has. A 32bit Acro Naze32 Brushed Flight Controller was used in this work as it was easier to program with the BetaFlight software and able to operate with minimal supply of 3.7 Volts.. A 3 Watt independent power transmitter with frequency of 915 Mhz used to test the model to supplant the encompassing accessible radio frequency resources. The outcomes depicted that the drone was successfully flew in indoor and outdoor environment, able to take off from ground, hover in the sky and land, the maximum range of the drone is around 200 metre as a micro receiver was used for the drone construction, While the battery cycle of the constructed drone is around 7 minutes up to 12 minutes.
